Travelogue Dates
February 10th: Yangon
The single most striking sight in Yangon – and perhaps all of Myanmar – is the Shwedagon Paya.
February 11th: Bago
From this vantage point of Shwemawdaw Paya it seemed that every hill top within sight was covered with additional payas.
February 12th: Bagan
Two things about horse transportation: first, it’s a pretty rough ride. Second, horses pass a lot of gas!
February 13th: Mt Popa
You see Mt Popa long before you get to it. It’s the core of an extinct volcano and it rises abruptly from the surrounding hills.
February 14th: Salay
The streets are covered with the canopy of high trees and there was a lively little market where everyone stopped to stare at the foreigner.
February 15th: Mandalay
There are many easy, and fun, ways to gain merit for the next life.
